Lutsen Ski Trip 2016

A couple of weeks ago, we took a trip (along with a few other families) to Lutsen Mountains!

A friend of ours that headed up the trip secured a condo for the families to share (this is the condo right next to ours).

Morning in the condo!

All the skiers were in a bit of hustle to get going and get on the hills. Most of the moms (including me: I am NOT willing to ski while in my third trimester) stayed in the condo to watch the little kiddos.

Story time! I brought a few books, and picked up a few more at thrift stores on the way to Lutsen.

We (and by "we" I mean Reuben) decided to take Helen out skiing!

Riding on the lift for the first time!

It was a beautiful day, though pretty cloudy (bad for visibility on the slopes).

The magic carpet is a MUCH better choice for small children.

Helen enjoyed skiing, but she would need a lot more practice to be able to go down the hill by herself. She likes Daddy to hold her up.

Lunch time!

After staying 3 nights (skiing 2 days), it was time to pack up and head home.

We drove home in the snow.

It was a very fun trip. I hope we can do something similar again one day!
